Indiana Supports Reform Movement Upheld
Indiana political writer W H Blodgett argues the November returns show the public endorses reform along Roosevelt and Hanly lines. He notes opposition from saloon, gambler, and railroad interests but says the trend is moral over political, with a Sullivan county result sending a pro law and order Republican to the General Assembly and other local updates. Harry Thompson may return from Mexico for a better railroad job, and Mona Parks of Littleton Colorado visits.
